Online game: Hanging out in the beauty studio

Since the development of the game industry, countless types and gameplays have been derived.

From consoles to arcades, computers to mobile phones.

From shooting games to action games, from real-time strategy games to large-scale role-playing games.

Of course, games should be fun, so fast-food games and krypton gold games can be popular for a period of time.

However, when fast-food games are making a lot of money, there is a kind of game that goes the other way. From the day it was born, it has made countless players miserable. The main feature is the word hardcore.

This type of game, which is known for its extremely high difficulty, is the so-called [Soul Games].

The biggest difference between Soul Games and ordinary games is that...

In other games, the player as the protagonist can trample on the monsters in various ways and enjoy the fun of mowing the grass.

But in Soul Games, no matter how high the player's level is or how good the equipment is, as long as they encounter monsters, unless they have a coquettish position and skilled techniques, they will still be tortured by the monsters.

Take the popular soul games "Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice" and "Elden Ring" as examples. For every player who first comes into contact with this type of game, if he is not killed dozens of times by monsters when he goes out, he simply cannot be considered to have officially started the game.

If other games improve equipment and values, then soul games improve the player's own skills and experience.

Relying on the skills and experience accumulated from hundreds of deaths, the sense of achievement that players gain at the moment of passing the level is unparalleled.

This is the sense of satisfaction that krypton gold games can never satisfy.

It is also the fundamental reason why soul games can stand out from a group of fast-food games.

As an immersive virtual online game that focuses on reality and immersion, "Heart of Condemnation" will certainly not miss such a classic gameplay, so in addition to the traditional MMORPG mode, the official also very considerately prepared a soul-like mode for players.

In the soul-like mode, the game will become more realistic, and players will feel like they have truly entered the world of martial arts. All skills will become real martial arts moves. When fighting with the enemy, it is no longer a simple numerical competition, but a martial arts master, and the real test is shown by the hands.

Use the traditional online game mode to attract ordinary players to join the pit, and wait until most players are familiar with the basic operation of the game, and then start to vigorously promote the soul-like mode.

When that time comes, players will be extremely surprised to find that-

[Turn the game into the arena, turn the virtual into reality]

This sentence is no longer a simple slogan, but has truly become a bridge connecting virtuality and reality.

…

As one of the top guilds at this stage, Blood Oath has naturally tried the soul-like mode during the internal test.

However, because in the soul-like mode, the system will automatically shut down the player's auxiliary combat system, and the player will be doubled if he dies, so after trying to challenge it twice, Blood Oath decisively gave up this mode and regarded this mode as a more perverted "hell mode" than the hero mode.

In the guild discussion group, He Huan had heard countless legends about the Soul-like mode, but he himself had never really experienced it.

Therefore, after confirming that Li Qianfan was going to challenge the Soul-like mode, He Huan quickly called up the video recording function and planned to record the entire process.

His idea was actually very simple. As long as Li Qianfan could successfully kill a small monster in the Soul-like mode, then this video would be valuable.

In this way, he could not only analyze and learn the techniques in the video frame by frame, but he could even send this video directly to Bai Zhan Cheng Shang in exchange for a considerable financial reward.

He Huan's calculations were very loud, but what he didn't expect was...

Li Qianfan has always been very cautious in doing things, so as early as when he turned on the Soul-like mode, Li Qianfan disabled the dungeon recording function to prevent his monster-killing techniques from being leaked in advance.

"How is your Qinggong?"

He Huan was still wondering why the recording function could not be turned on, and Li Qianfan was already standing at the door ready to start.

The two of them are now in a firewood room in Xishan Hanzhai, the starting point of the dungeon.

At this time, their undercover identities have been exposed. As long as they walk out of the woodshed, the dungeon process will be officially started.

It's called escaping, but in fact it's just fighting a bloody way out.

Starting from Xishan Dry Village, passing through Xishan Pass, arriving at Zhongyi Hall in the core of Lianyun Village, rescuing the undercover NPC, then turning south, passing Nanshan Pass and Nanshan Dry Village in turn, and finally arriving at the southern dock smoothly to pass the level.

Maybe because he had never been exposed to the soul-like mode before, He Huan was obviously a little nervous.

After hearing Li Qianfan's question, he hesitated for a while, and then answered uncertainly: "It should be okay..."

"Be more confident. I believe in you, otherwise I wouldn't have teamed up with you... Do you see the two monsters at the door? I'll go up and sneak attack the one on the right first. When you see me take action, rush directly to the sentry post and try to draw the attention of the sentry archer to you. After I get rid of the two monsters at the door, I will come to you immediately, and then we will go up together to get rid of the archer. Do you understand?"

"Understood..."

"Be careful, don't get hit by the monsters. This is a soul-like mode. If you are accidentally hit by an arrow, you will be seriously injured even if you don't die. "

"Uh..."

He Huan swallowed his saliva, and a trace of unconfidence flashed across his face.

It was not until now that he roughly understood how big the gap between him and Li Qianfan was.

It is estimated that this big man had already studied the soul-like mode during the internal test, otherwise he would not be so confident.

Perhaps influenced by Li Qianfan, He Huan quickly adjusted his mentality and nodded heavily, indicating that he was ready.

"Get ready, I'm going to do it, you must act at the moment I do it, otherwise we will both die here!"

"Yes!"

After getting He Huan's affirmative answer, Li Qianfan nodded with satisfaction.

Then, he quietly came to the door, and after making sure that the attention of the two minions at the door was not here, he raised three fingers to He Huan.

"Three, two, one..."

"Go! ”

At the moment the countdown ended, Li Qianfan stood in place and activated the general skill [Climbing the Clouds and Chasing the Moon].

With the advance effect brought by the Clouds and Chasing the Moon, Li Qianfan rushed out of the woodshed in an instant and flashed directly behind the little minion on the right.

In the soul-like mode, the player's damage is converted by percentage.

There is an advantage of sneaking from behind, that is, it will trigger the killing execution effect 100%, and a full-blooded little monster can be killed instantly.

Therefore, after the little minion on the right was killed by Li Qianfan in one blow, the little minion on the left slowly reacted and raised the machete in his hand to chop at Li Qianfan.

At the same time, the little minion Luo's shouting and killing successfully attracted the attention of the sentry archer.

But just when the archer was about to shoot, a figure suddenly rushed out of the woodshed and ran directly towards the sentry tower where the archer was.

The AI ​​of the monsters in the soul-like mode is very high.

After realizing that He Huan was a greater threat to him, the archer immediately changed his target and aimed the arrow at He Huan who was moving in a snake-like manner.

He Huan also suffered from his lack of experience.

He thought that he would not be hit by the arrow as long as he walked around, but he did not expect that the monsters in the soul-like mode had no martial ethics at all, directly predicted his movement, and accurately hit his shoulder.

"Fuck! How can I still feel pain? It hurts so much, fuck!!!"
